Although I do think we should stop even bringing "trans" into it. Trans folks deserve human rights, period. Part of the evilness of our opponents is that when we state that, they try to make it into "special rights" or something somehow terrible. Well it is a basic human right and it is what our Dem politicians generally support - and for god's sake, even if a Dem is squishy on some specific policy trans people want, do you really want to push the Dem down when the alternative is FAR worse? This is the kind of recognition of reality that we MUST do if we are going to escape this nightmare. That is, stop introducing the "red flag in front of the bull" topics. Let THEM do that. And when the wrong-wing DOES bring it up, have a response that shows them to be the EVIL that they are. Don't need to get into specifics. It is human rights, and trans people are human. Period.
